Goodman B1497204 144°C Fusible Link

The B1497204 is a genuine OEM 144°C fusible link (thermal cutoff / one-shot safety fuse) for the Goodman GDE120-5 gas furnace. Wired in series with the control circuit, this link opens permanently if temperatures exceed its 144°C (291°F) rating, cutting power to stop the furnace during an overheat event — a critical last-line safety device. A blown link means no operation and points to a root cause such as a dirty filter, blocked ductwork, or a failing blower.

OEM Part Number: B1497204
Trip Temperature: 144°C (291°F)
Type: One-time (non-resettable) thermal fusible link
Fits Model: Goodman GDE120-5 (furnace)
Function: Overheat safety cutoff in the control circuit
Brand: Goodman OEM

OEM vs. Generic

The trip temperature and current rating of a fusible link must exactly match the furnace's safety design. The genuine Goodman 144°C link is calibrated for the GDE120-5 — substituting a link with the wrong rating can either nuisance-trip or, worse, fail to protect against overheating. For a safety fuse, always use the exact OEM part.

Installation Difficulty: Easy

Shut off power, note the two lead connections, and splice/attach the new link in place of the blown one. Around 15 minutes with basic tools. Important: always diagnose why the original link opened (restricted airflow, bad blower, blocked vent) before returning the furnace to service, or the replacement will blow again.
